A Treasury Manager plays a vital role in organisations as they are responsible for funding all the activities of the company. You need to understand the markets, be good with figures and be very wary of the Risk implications of the role. You can handle large amounts of money and you have to make sure it is invested in the right place all the time and be constantly aware of where it is and what it is doing, be it an overnight deposit or an investment in a management fund. These roles require bright graduates from business or Economic backgrounds that are mathematically quick and cool under pressure as mistakes can cost the company a lot of money.
